Journal ArticleDOI
CFD simulation of mixing in anaerobic digesters.
Mitsuharu Terashima,Rajeev Goel,Kazuya Komatsu,Hidenari Yasui,Hiroshi Takahashi,Yu You Li,Tatsuya Noike +6 more
TL;DR: A three-dimensional CFD model incorporating the rheological properties of sludge was developed and applied to quantify mixing in a full-scale anaerobic digester and the results were found to be in good agreement with experimental tracer response curve.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of low pH conditions on decay of methanogenic biomass.
Meng Sun,Bing Liu,Katsunori Yanagawa,Nguyen Thi Hoang Ha,Rajeev Goel,Mitsuharu Terashima,Hidenari Yasui +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that one of the causes for the digester failure under low pH conditions is due to accelerated decay of methanogenic biomass, which is relatively common in anaerobic digesters that receive readily biodegradable food wastes at high loading.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of diffuser bubble size in computational fluid dynamics models to predict oxygen transfer in spiral roll aeration tanks
TL;DR: In this paper, the volumetric oxygen mass transfer coefficient (KLa) was calculated for different types of diffusers, which is a critical parameter in the CFD simulations, and the results indicated that the coarse-bubble diffusers have bubble sizes of 7-8mm, 5-6-mm, and approximately 3-mm.
Journal ArticleDOI
CFD Investigation of the Effect of the Feed Spacer on Hydrodynamics in Spiral Wound Membrane Modules
TL;DR: In this paper, a pillar-like feed spacer was designed to achieve area contact, which made it possible to enhance the porosity and minimize the adverse effects from the dead zone caused by the transverse filament.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic analysis of biological degradation for tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) in the anaerobic activated sludge system at ambient temperature
Bing Liu,Kohei Yoshinaga,Jer Horng Wu,Wei-Yu Chen,Mitsuharu Terashima,Rajeev Goel,Domenico Pangallo,Hidenari Yasui +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an anaerobic process in ambient temperature composed of a suspended sludge reactor and subsequent two gravity thickeners with addition of flocculants was elaborated.
